Police searched for three men who tried to rob a liquor store on north Academy Boulevard on Saturday morning.

Two of the men were heavily armed, one with a pistol-grip shotgun and the second with a long shotgun, said Sgt. Tony Erickson, who responded to the 9:42 a.m. call.

"They were masked and in there with shotguns," Erickson said. "Fortunately, the clerk was not at the counter, she was in the office and locked the door."

Not finding anyone to rob, the pair left Academy Boulevard Liquors, 1210 North Academy Blvd., and got into a dark-colored Toyota Camry behind the store driven by the third suspect and took off.
